Anyone know a source for the terminals that snap into the plug for the radio? Im talking about the ones attached to the car and not the aftermarket radio harness. Also, I would like just the terminals so I can eliminate any splices. I just cant seem to find them sold separately anywhere.

If you're upgrading to the later model Pontiac radios, you can get the plug and play harnesses at www.replacementradios.com Click WIRING then GM then ADAPTERS. It's the last one on the page. It plugs directly into your stock harness so there's no cutting and splicing.

I'm not sure what style you need but waytekwire.com might have them.

A previous owner cut the factory harness out but then electrical taped it back in. I bought a new one and was going to slder and shrink wrap it back in. Then I realized I can just buy the terminals and crimp them on the wires just like factory with no splices. Companies sell every other GM terminal except for these. I have a photo of it but I cant figure out how to upload it. Do I have to link it to another website?

The factory connector/terminal looks like this


This one from Classic Industries looks like it has the same terminals, you wouldn't need the connector body. I wasn't able to find that terminal sold at any of the places I usually get my terminals from so I think this is the only way you will find them.

Ok, if you're wanting to re-pin the original wires and install original factory white, blue and black harness ends, you can get a de-pinning tool from The Fiero Store. Since you have a set of the original Fiero harness ends that plug into the stock radio, you can de-pin it, and after crimping your new pins onto the wiring stubs, you can insert them into the original plastic harness ends. You'll have a little less wire to work with, but it will accomplish what I think you want. http://fierostore.com/Produ...px?s=51490&d=263&p=3

I think thats it! Thanks Seajai! I searched all over. Never realized that connector used the same terminal. Im gonna call them to see if I can get the terminals separately but its no sweat if I have to buy the complete kit. Thanks again!
